Bridgman's Complete Guide to Drawing from Life
Bridgman was a legendary teacher at New York's Art Students' League. There, he originated a system of drawing known as "constructive anatomy." His work has become a standard work at art schools and universities, and it still holds up as an indispensable volume, with more than 1000 illustrations of hands and hundreds of images of arms, shoulders, heads, torsos, legs, knees, and feet.
